Recently eliminated The Price is Right Male Model Search contested Raphael Thompson has landed a role on another CBS daytime show, the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. He will play Matt, a Forrester Creations employee, starting November 20.

"To even make it that far in the competition was really great,” Thompson tells Soap Opera Digest. "To make it that far and have the opportunity to go to the next level of my career and have the opportunity to be on The Bold and the Beautiful was just that much more great."

Thompson watched both TPIR and B&B as a kid.

"As a child wanting to be an actor because of soap operas and actually being on The Bold and the Beautiful was like, 'Wow, I could really get used to doing this.'" he says.

"It would be an amazing and humbling pleasure to be a series regular," adds Thompson. "That would be the ultimate reward."
